2021-03-11 20:43:56 Dimitri John Ledkov summary initramfs-tools does not include fsck in initrd if mount pass is 0 initramfs-tools does not include fsck binaries in the initrd if all mount pass are 0
2021-03-24 15:25:55 Dimitri John Ledkov description initramfs-tools does not include fsck in initrd if MNT_PASS equals zero in the fstab entries. This has lead to the following situation : when dropping to initramfs shell during boot due to fs errors, we are not able to run fsck manually because it is not included in initrd. fsck should be included regardless of the MNT_PASS value. [Impact] * initramfs-tools does not include fsck in initrd if MNT_PASS equals zero in the fstab entries. This has lead to the following situation : when dropping to initramfs shell during boot due to fs errors, we are not able to run fsck manually because it is not included in initrd. fsck should be included regardless of the MNT_PASS value. [Test Plan] * change /etc/fstab with PASSNO set to 0 for all entries * update-initramfs -u * lsinitramfs that is just generated * observe that it includes fsck utilities for the filesystems in /etc/fstab. I.e. fsck.ext4 e2fsck must exist [Where problems could occur] * The initramfs size will increase slightly upon upgrade, for the same initramfs-tools default options & kernel. However, one can control and remove fsck binaries (or include more of them) by setting FSTYPE variable in the initramfs settings.
